Function calculates Greenwich Mean Siderial Time at 0h, UT1 (GMST1) given UT1 year, month, and day.
Returns fractional hours of GMST1 with class fracHrs. The
corresponding print method gives hh:mm:ss format rounded to n
decimal
places in seconds by setting options('digits.secs'=n)
.
Multiply UT1 fractional day by 1.002737909350795 to get fractional sidereal day.
